White Rabbit Starting Kit

About the White Rabbit technology

White Rabbit is an extension to Ethernet network with sub-nanosecond
accurate synchronization and gigabit rate data transfer speed. You can

About the Starting Kit

The Starting Kit has been designed to test and check if the White
Rabbit technology meets your requirements and also to ease the
understanding on what one can do with it and how to integrate it in your
own project. It is the easiest way to get aquainted with White Rabbit
technology.

The starting kit uses two SPEC
and fmc-dio-5chttla FMC 5-channel Digital I/O
module cards also
called nodes in the White Rabbit world. Each node makes basic
operations such as input timestamping or programmable output pulse
generation.
Additionally, specific software and gateware layers allow to use it as a
standard network interface card implementing the White Rabbit
functionality.
Network packets with accurate time-stamping information are generated
and timestamped at the hardware level to achieve the highest accuracy.

Commercial producers

You can buy the SPEC and
fmc-dio-5chttla FMC 5-channel Digital I/O
module separately
from different vendors. You also need different cables to repeat the
experiments described in the White Rabbit Starting Kit manual. For your
convenience you can also buy a complete kit that includes everything you
need.
